Ezekiel 11:5 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The Spirit of prophecy again moved him, which is here called the Spirit of the Lord, or, the Spirit the Lord, as the Hebrew will bear. Fell upon me; descended, by its own act powerfully, sweetly, and prevailingly entered the man. Said unto me; inclined me, that I could not but speak. Thus saith the Lord; as thou goest by my appointment, so be sure to use my name and authority. Thus have ye said; profanely, with scoffs, as hath been reported, Ezekiel 11:3. I know the things that come into your mind; ye may be assured all that ariseth up in your mind is known to me. I see each one of the imaginations of your mind so soon as ever they peep up in your heart. Your thoughts I know afar off, Psalms 139:2.

Ezekiel 11:5

5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.
